Mahoning Valley Race 4 - Race 4 - Claiming
COUNTING ON CLYDE (1) landed his maiden success over this course and distance last time, scoring by 6 lengths. Is lightly raced and has plenty of scope for improvement. Winning rider L A Batista stays aboard and he can go on with it. BALKI BARTOKOMOUS (7) has been in the money at his last couple of runs, the latest when second over 1207m at this track (Dirt). Great chance to find the winners' enclosure. DONALD'S NATION (2) opened this prep with a win two runs ago. Less impressive last time out when fourth over 1609m at this track, beaten 27 lengths. Finds a suitable race and can return to winning ways. HE IS DYNAMIC (6) has been out of the winner's list for a long time, last start finishing seventh at this track (Dirt) over 1207m after he got a long way back in the run. Can turn things around.
